time they're juniors and seniors? At what point do you change to pro style, if that is, indeed, the best scheme to fit the athletes the coaching staff believes they can best recruit?

Spread vs. Pro-style

If short-term success would come at the expense of long-term success, I'm

This is how I feel. I do think Ty's offense will work, but not knowing is hard

Did you really say "come to pass"? Nice. Rub it in.

We don't have the players to run a pro style, it's ridiculous that we

First off, I don't want to run a pro style, ever. Secondly, why

Jericho

9/25/17 6:35pm

But the juniors and seniors have been in the offense for 3-5 years. That's

SoCalCoug

9/25/17 6:37pm

They are also super talented, and that is the point.

Jericho

9/25/17 6:37pm

The theory is that with a pro style with experienced players, you have a better

SoCalCoug

9/25/17 6:40pm

That's not true. Pro style teams rely on athleticism to win

Jericho

9/25/17 6:45pm

Why do you keep saying untrue things? I don't get it.

CarolinaCoug

9/25/17 7:15pm

I'm not even going to engage you considering you think our D is suckier

Jericho

9/25/17 7:16pm

LINK to where I said our D is suckier? Your credibility on this is shot.

Dude, you can't steal my line...

I did.

Mangum is a junior, 24 years old. He spent all last year practicing the pro

Some reason= Mtch Matthews & Terrence Houk & Nick Kurtz etc.

He wasn't only ever looking good exceot for those hail Mary's

And they didn't only catch Hail Marys.

"For some reason he looked better walking out there straight off a mission in.."

Since apparently none of the players they were left with fit the scheme,

Left Shark Coug

It isn't the scheme.

PJMort

9/25/17 7:05pm

Yes. You really think Taysom had his worst passing season as a 5th year Sr

Jericho

9/25/17 7:13pm

Yes-- see Mitch Matthews and Terrance Houk above.

PJMort

9/25/17 8:09pm

"Then when we ran a read option lastyear..he suddenly was able to move the ball"

icecougar

9/25/17 8:23pm

Taysom looked good in the NFL because of his experience with the Prostyle

BYUSwoop

9/26/17 12:09am

Not true. He looked good because he was surrounded by similar talent

Jericho

9/26/17 12:17am

Have you watched the packers? How often does Rogers go under center?

Blueto

9/26/17 5:07am

Under center doesn't mean not pro-style. Did you listen to any of his

BYUSwoop

9/26/17 10:48pm

I believe they lack confidence, and it very well might be that the lack of

Left Shark Coug

9/25/17 7:17pm

Man, now I'm convinced! It's ridiculous!

PJMort

9/25/17 6:37pm

Most college coaches run a spread... so... not sure what your point is...

Jericho

9/25/17 6:38pm

Again incorrect. A Qb has to watch the snap on shotgun.eyes not on field at all.

CarolinaCoug

9/25/17 7:25pm

Way easier to get hit from the blind side in a pro style

Jericho

9/25/17 7:40pm

Sorry, you can see much more of the defense and longer from gun

ALC

9/25/17 10:34pm

You still have your peripheral in the gun during the snap anyway

Jericho

9/25/17 10:46pm

Yep

ALC

9/25/17 11:11pm

In shotgun, the QB has to take their eyes off the defense to catch the snap.

I would ad, I don't think BYU gets mismatches by adding wr's this year.

PJMort

9/25/17 6:34pm

BYU will never have the players. Need to go asymmetric and use spread

zerome4sooners

9/25/17 8:23pm

Or at least the depth.
